Full Moon in Sagittarius: A Fiery Illumination and Enlightenment of Faith and Foundation
Full Moon at 6° in Sagittarius | June 11, 2025| 3:42 AM EST
Anchoring Affirmation
“I honor the fire within me to see clearly, speak boldly, and surrender wholly to my truth. What I release today makes space for what I deeply desire.”
The Full Moon in Sagittarius peaked at 3:42 AM EST at 20°, casting its light into the depths of the 8th House. This Full Moon, known for its boldness and breadth, invites us into a dance between truth and transformation, exposure and expansion. As it opposes the Sun and Jupiter in Gemini in the 2nd House, we are pulled between what we own and what we owe, between material worth and metaphysical wisdom. The light of Sagittarius penetrates shadowy corners, and in the 8th House, it illuminates the hidden parts of our psyche—our inheritances, both material and emotional, our attachments, our secrets, and our shared power.
The June 11, 2025, 6♦️/ 4♠️ Full Moon in Sagittarius arrives with fire, foundation, and faith, illuminating what we must see, speak, and surrender to move forward. At 20° of the Archer’s sign—within the mysterious waters of the 8th House—this lunation asks us to go beyond surface optimism and confront what our truth has cost us. Sagittarius seeks meaning, but in the 8th House, that meaning must be earned through depth, intimacy, release, and renewal.
We’ve arrived at a threshold. The Sun in Gemini (20° in the 2nd House) represents the voice we’ve trained to keep things light, clever, curious, and controlled. But the Full Moon in Sagittarius reveals where truth is not light, where truth is a wildfire, and where truth scorches so the new can bloom.
This Full Moon also trines Mars in Leo in the 5th House, igniting creative courage and emotional clarity. It pushes us to claim what inspires us, and to act on what burns inside us. The U.S. natal chart experiences this Moon through the 1st House, bringing issues of identity, independence, and national narrative to the forefront. However, a square to the nation’s Neptune in Virgo in the 9th House warns of delusion or distortion in the stories we tell, urging us to discern faith from fantasy.
In both personal and collective terms, we are being asked to reckon with illusion, break open the gate of authenticity, and realign with values that mean something. This moon's themes run deep, and the fire it brings is meant to liberate.
Cardology Insight: 6♦️ + 4♠️
June 11th is a 6♦️ day—representing balance, financial responsibility, and the karma of values. This is a card of cosmic justice in the realm of worth: we reap what we sow emotionally, financially, and energetically. As the Card of the Day, it mirrors the Full Moon’s 2H/8H axis, where values and resources (2H) meet deeper shared bonds and power exchanges (8H).
The Planetary Ruling Card (4♠️) offers a second layer of insight, like a subtext to the day’s energy. The 4♠️ offers a stabilizing force. It reminds us that absolute security is not found in what we own, but in what we build. This grounding Earth energy encourages us to rebuild our foundation, not from fantasy, but from truth.
Let's explore some of the things that occurred at 3:42 am EST yesterday:
Opposes the Sun 20° & Jupiter 0° in Gemini 2H
Abundance vs. Alignment
The opposition between the Moon in Sagittarius and Sun + Jupiter in Gemini activates a polarity between profound truth and flexible communication. This aspect expands the tension between personal truth and shared wisdom. The Moon in Sagittarius seeks to philosophize and liberate, while Jupiter in Gemini expands curiosity and mental energy.
The Moon in the 8th House wants emotional intimacy, spiritual surrender, and existential honesty. But the Sun and Jupiter in the 2nd House want facts, comforts, and rationalized security.
For individuals: On an individual level, this may feel like information overload or spiritual restlessness. This aspect asks us to release distractions and speak soul-truths over performative intelligence.
For the U.S.: For the United States, it highlights debates about national values, education, communication, international affairs, and what truths are being broadcast. The country is asked to reckon with what it values (2H) and how much it masks behind surface optimism. Expect increased discourse around financial inequality and resource redistribution. Also expect announcements, shifts in foreign relationships, or revelations in media narratives.
Trines Mars 26° in Leo 5H
The Courage to Live What You Believe
The Moon’s trine to Mars supports bold emotional expression and courage in love, creativity, and self-actualization. This trine brings a surge of vitality and bravery. Mars in Leo empowers us to express ourselves and take bold, creative risks.
For individuals: Collectively, this offers momentum for leadership and artistic innovation. This is a potent time to move on passion, confront what you feel strongly about, and act from emotional clarity.
For the U.S.: This may stir passionate expression, national pride, or increased emphasis on youth and the arts. The people’s voices become bolder and louder, especially around children, art, and personal freedom. Watch for creative protests and grassroots calls for joy-based revolution. The nation may be moved to act on long-standing truths, especially regarding education, foreign policy, or collective ethics.
The Sagittarius Full Moon and the United States
As a nation, the U.S. has its own natal chart, just like a person. This Full Moon activates specific placements in the country’s cosmic DNA.
Full Moon 20° in Sagittarius 8H Squares U.S. Natal Neptune 22° in Virgo 9H
This square can fog clarity and force the clearing of old delusions around belief, doctrine, and media. Here, the tension between idealism and realism becomes potent. Neptune’s illusions may cloud our perception, especially around health, ethics, and spiritual discernment. This square can bring clarity through confusion if we commit to seeing through the fog. For the U.S., Neptune in the 9th suggests ongoing tensions around religious belief, education, and moral authority.
For individuals: Spiritual disillusionment or cognitive dissonance may arise. The medicine is discernment. This is a detox of toxic idealism.
For the U.S.: This transit presses on the country’s narratives of righteousness, justice, and morality. Expect debates around religious freedoms, educational standards, and disinformation campaigns.
Full Moon 20° in Sagittarius 8H Opposes U.S. Natal Mars 21° in Gemini 7H
An opposition to natal Mars in Gemini stirs aggressive dialogue and possible polarization. Conflict arises in partnerships, personally and diplomatically. This can bring tension in close relationships or spark reactions in national/international relations. This transit provokes conversations around national defense, communication strategies, and how anger is publicly expressed.
For individuals: You may feel a need to assert boundaries or renegotiate roles.
For the U.S.: Foreign diplomacy and civil discourse could become particularly combative. Watch for reactive, aggressive communication in the media.
Some themes we can expect to experience under the influence of the Full Moon 20° in Sagittarius are:
Soul-Level Truth & Spiritual Release
Letting Go of Outdated Ideologies
Emotional Fire: Passion as a Pathway to Freedom
Collective Awakening to Values that Matter
From Surface Wisdom to Embodied Knowledge
The Courage to End Something That’s Been “Good Enough”
National identity and personal sovereignty.
Looking Back & Moving Forward
Track the Arc of Your Truth
This Full Moon at 20° Sagittarius isn’t just a moment of culmination—it’s a checkpoint in a much larger cycle of spiritual growth, visionary alignment, and liberatory truth-telling. Look back to the New Moon in Sagittarius on December 1, 2024, at 9°, which occurred in the 3rd House and transited the U.S. 12th House, opposing the U.S. natal Uranus in Gemini at 8°. Themes around unconscious beliefs, private truth, and revolutionary thought were set into motion.
Also, revisit the New Moon in Pisces on February 27, 2025, at 9°, which squared the U.S. natal Uranus and Ascendant, coinciding with the rare planetary parade. These dates seeded insights we may now see come into bloom.
To deepen your reflection and trace your soul’s storyline, revisit the following portals:
December 1, 2024 – New Moon in Sagittarius at 9°
On this date, a New Moon bloomed in the 3rd House (in New York), illuminating how we learn, think, and communicate. That lunation was a spark, planting early seeds of mental reorientation and a new language of personal truth. Importantly, it transited the U.S. 12th House and opposed the country’s natal Uranus at 8° Gemini.
For the nation, that marked an unsettling wake-up call from unconscious patterns and hidden disruptions, especially in how truth is shaped, hidden, or revealed.
What insights or beliefs were emerging then? What secrets or surprising truths were starting to surface? For you personally, what did you begin to question, express, or re-learn around this time?
February 27, 2025 – New Moon in Pisces at 9°
Just a day before the seven-planet alignment known as the Planetary Parade, this Pisces New Moon squared the U.S. natal Uranus in Gemini (8°) and its Ascendant at 12° Sagittarius. This was a mystical initiation point. The cosmic tension it generated forced new imaginative frameworks to form, even as it dissolved the ones we outgrew.
What soul-level intentions were you setting around that time? What mystical or emotional seeds were planted? Review what you felt, intuiting, or surrendering at the end of February and early March. What dreams began to press forward through the fog?
When to Follow Up
What you release or set in motion under this Full Moon will ripple forward, especially into the year's final quarter. To follow up on this Full Moon’s revelations, look to the Total Lunar Eclipse in Pisces at 15° on September 7, 2025. Also mark December 19, 2025, when the New Moon returns to Sagittarius—offering a point of integration and redirection.
Be mindful of how this moment's insights, intentions, and emotional truths continue to evolve. Intentions, rituals, or decisions made during this Full Moon should be reviewed and reflected upon during these key dates:
September 7, 2025 – Full Moon & Total Lunar Eclipse in Pisces (15°)

Check what has come full circle from this Sagittarius Full Moon.
December 19, 2025 – New Moon in Sagittarius

By this time, your internal compass will have been recalibrated. You’ll have new philosophies, refined values, and greater clarity about what deserves your belief.
Suggested Rituals for the Sagittarius Full Moon
Truth Fire Journal
Write down three truths you’ve been avoiding. Then burn them safely (or bury them) as a way of releasing the fear around what they mean.
Voice Activation Practice
Speak your truth aloud. Record a message to your future self or share a story that liberates your soul.
Values and Wealth Alignment
Review your finances through the lens of your beliefs. Do your numbers reflect your values?
Ancestral Listening
As the Moon transits the 8th House, create a quiet space to connect with ancestral wisdom. Light a candle and invite wisdom from your lineage. Ask what story you’ve been carrying that no longer serves your lineage. Ask what truth your bloodline is ready to live now through you.
Closing Reflection
The 6♦️ and 4♠️ reminds us that authentic value is built through disciplined intention and inner harmony. This Full Moon calls us to explore the emotional terrain of our shared stories and release the lies that keep us small. This Strawberry Full Moon calls us not to perfect what we know, but to embody what we believe. In a world where performance often replaces authenticity, this lunation dares you to mean it—to burn away what’s hollow and reclaim the radiant core of your knowing. In the rising light of Sagittarius, let truth be your compass, and transformation your birthright. Let the fire rise, whether in love, purpose, voice, or values. It will not destroy you—it will define you.
